00:00For students who have a dream, everything can be endured, even if the classroom is destroyed.
00:13Just like a school in Benguet that supplies water whenever it rains.
00:19That is why the early birth of the GMA Capuso Foundation,
00:22three strong leaders for them.
00:31Old iron is covered in broken walls, broken windows, and wood that is being cut.
00:39That is the condition of a few classrooms in Kot-Kot Talabis Elementary School in Bugyas, Benguet,
00:49because of old age.
00:51That is why the son of Flor de Risa, sometimes it is hard to hear the teacher when it rains.
00:58If the rain is that strong, there is a sound coming from the roof,
01:04because it is old, maybe, sometimes the window, the rain comes in.
01:09And so that the students will not have a hard time,
01:12the GMA Capuso Foundation will build three Capuso classrooms
01:18that have comfort rooms in Kot-Kot Talabis Elementary School.
01:23We chose these schools because they are in the Vegetable Farming District of Benguet.
01:31We are really in charge because the storms that passed here really made it hard for you.
01:40And because it is a mountainous area, we will put a riprap
01:44to ensure the safety of the students.
01:47That is the purpose of the riprap at the bottom,
01:50to prevent the foundation from collapsing.
01:56It can also withstand up to signal number 5 storms and magnitude 8 storms.
02:03And as it is early Christmas,
02:05we distributed give-a-gift bags for kindergarten to grade 6 students.
02:12The early blindness has a big effect on the study of a child.
02:18So, in order to avoid this situation,
02:21the GMA Capuso Foundation provided free check-ups for the eyes and glasses
02:27to students in Biliran Province under the 2020 Capuso Eye Project.
02:34In order for the student to read clearly,
02:37Lynn covers her face and leaves a small space for her eyes.
02:44Currently, Lynn is in grade 6.
02:47She can't avoid being embarrassed by her classmates.
02:51She can't see properly.
02:54She wants it to be dark.
02:56We don't have money to give her a check-up.
02:59Angel is a grade 9 student.
03:01Even though she is already sitting in the front row of the class,
03:04she still needs to cover her eyes
03:08so that she can read properly in the classroom.
03:12Since I was in grade 7,
03:14when we look at the blackboard and laptops,
03:17my vision becomes blurry.
03:19It's blurry and it hurts my eyes.
03:22I do small exercises.
03:26I do small tunnel vision exercises
03:30so that the concentrated light can enter the eyes
03:34so that you can see better.
03:36The magnification of the eyes is not enough.
03:40That's why the patient needs to wear glasses.
03:43So, under the 2020 Capuso Eye Project of the GMA Capuso Foundation,
03:48there is an ideal vision,
03:50free eye check-up and free glasses
03:53for our 100 students in Biliran Province.
03:57Thank you very much, GMA Capuso.
04:00Travel here in Biliran.
04:02This is a big help, especially in their studies.
04:06They also received food packs and hygiene kits.
04:09I am thankful to GMA Capuso
04:12because they helped us and we can see properly.
04:16This is a big help in my studies.
04:19Because of the hardship of life,
04:21even the care for dental health
04:24is neglected by some of our countrymen.
04:27Others are just begging in the streets
04:30to ease the pain of their teeth.
04:33GMA Capuso Foundation supported this
04:36and carried out a dental mission in Bayambang, Pangasinan.
04:42Whenever Janjan's teeth hurt,
04:45she applies liniment oil to her teeth.
04:51She can't replace her old toothbrush
04:54and she can't go to the dentist
04:57because her father, the dentist,
04:59is short of 350 pesos a day.
05:04When her teeth hurt,
05:08Whenever her teeth hurt,
05:11she just lies down and cries.
05:14She swallows salt.
05:16Then she applies spicy liniment oil.
05:21Liniment oil is hot when applied to our skin.
05:29So if our teeth have an infection
05:34and we apply it to our mouth,
05:37it will cause an infection in our mouth.
05:47Under our Linislusog Kapusong Kabataan Project,
05:51the Philippine Association of Private School Dentists was established.
05:56We went to four schools that have a Kapuso classroom
06:01in Bayambang, Pangasinan
06:03and carried out a free dental check-up
06:06for 1,500 students, including Janjan.
06:12There is also a fluoride varnish application
06:15to make the teeth strong and prevent tooth decay.
06:20We also provided hygiene kits and vitamins.
06:23Thank you very much.
06:25My teeth are not hurting and I was able to study well.
06:29More than Kapuso!
